By the way, the fact both Bergvall and Gray are below 21 means we have TWO more non-club trained vacant spots in our European squad.
 
Let’s be honest we need a right winger but also Eze as both Son and Madison seem to be blowing hot and cold for a while now. Eze would provide that spark we so desperately need. We also need a defensive midfielder, a real bloody hard man to cover our centrebacks when they are covering our inverted fullbacks. Right and left backs speak for themselves although Gray can cover right back. We are one of the few clubs who can spend this window so now is the time to do it.
There isn’t any hard man centre mids in world football.
 
I didn't watch second half but apparently Gray looked very good at RB...

I don't think a couple of rough moments defensively in pre-season is enough to derail the Spence comeback though. Still think there would be minutes for him in all comps this season.

He did look ok but I think he’s a bit raw to play RB in the PL. He needs bedding in.

Re Spence, that’s the exact kind of scenario that will put his “is he a good lad” mentality to the test. I am not sure Ange will want to risk him becoming a bad egg.

I think Spence was only playing LB for

A) fitness and minutes
B) to see if he can play there

I think he's fine at right back tbh. Playing the opposite flank as a full back, especially inverted is always going to be a horrible experience.

It was nice to see Gray play there today though. Some loose passes but he looked much more comfortable than he did in midfield.
